CBPsp: complex business processes for stream processing
(2011-04-01)
This thesis presents the framework of a complex business process driven event
stream processing system to produce meaningful output with direct implications to the
business objectives of an organization. This framework is ...
Monolayer terpyridyl metal complexes for high-efficiency electrochromic materials
(2021-08-01)
Electrochromic materials (ECMs) can change their color with changes of applied electrochemical potential. Currently, the use of ECMs in the industry is limited to mainly inorganic metal oxides, conjugated conducting polymers, ...
Muscle fatigue and other factors influencing forearm muscle activity
(2020-08-01)
The wrist extensor muscles of the forearm exhibit relatively greater muscle activity than the wrist flexors during most hand/wrist tasks. Since the extensors operate at a greater percentage of maximum to balance wrist joint ...
Water quality and biotic community response to an urban – rural land-use gradient in the Lake Simcoe watershed
(2020-06-01)
Most research in the Lake Simcoe watershed (LSW) has focused on how the lake has responded to changes in nutrients sourced by agriculture, particularly after mitigation measures have been put in place to remedy the lake’s ...
Characterization of the ACC-1 Family of cys-loop ligand gated ion channels from the parasitic nematode Haemonchus contortus.
(2020-12-01)
Nematode cys-loop ligand-gated ion channels (LGICs) have been extensively studied for decades because of their role in current anthelmintic action and potential as targets for future drugs. Many families of cys loop receptors ...
A dynamic visual analytics framework for complex temporal environments
(2016-08-01)
Introduction: Data streams are produced by sensors that sample an external system at a periodic interval. As the cost of developing sensors continues to fall, an increasing number of data stream acquisition systems have ...
Immunomodulatory activity of Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus R0011: analysis of secretome-mediated impacts on innate immune outcomes in intestinal epithelial cells and antigen presenting cells
(2021-12-01)
Certain lactic acid bacteria (LAB), such as Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus R0011, are associated with immune modulatory activities including down-regulation of pro-inflammatory gene transcription and expression. While host ...
Visual encoding quality and scalability in information visualization
(2019-02-01)
Information visualization seeks to amplify cognition through interactive visual representations of data. It comprises human processes, such as perception and cognition, and computer processes, such as visual encoding. ...
A method to detect and represent temporal patterns from time series data and its application for analysis of physiological data streams
(2020-03-01)
In critical care, complex systems and sensors continuously monitor patients’ physiological features such as heart rate, respiratory rate thus generating significant amounts of data every second. This results to more than ...
A study of password recall, perceived memorability, and strength using BCIs
(2018-04-01)
Passwords are considered the most common method of authentication and studies are frequently conducted to understand users' password habits. In this thesis, we run two empirical studies that provide information to further ...
